Installed one for the first time yesterday.. worked well for 2 days.. customer called and said hey it beeping . I silenced it then dropped the temp to 120..let s see how. It goes.. really it's neat with all the gadgets but to many things can go wrong and it usually does..Keep it simple.
To quote Scotty, “the more they overthink the plumbing, the easier it is to stop up the drain.” All these smart gadgets with minimal factory QC to save money means they don’t last long and fixing them is complicated if not impossible.
Fed can you tell what was the cost of the fixing and where you got the parts I'm having fault A114 code to clear the code you need to cycle the power not only clear the alarm you will end up with no hot water phone show empty tank mean no hot water I found out the hard way I'm planning to work on it but be ready to replace anything if I have to
Could you possibly link the elements you used? I have the same water heater and Im thinking about replacing the elements just as preventative maintenance. Thanks
1) bad valve. shut off heater, run the hot water out then replace the valve 2) gunk in the valve, shut off heater, run hot water out then open and close the releve valve.
Hi Fed! I recently had a guy come out to change my anode rod, had to stop him because he was asking for a crazy price, when he left I got an alarm on my 50 gal gladiator electric, I cleared it and got now a solid red light, though I have hot water. Any tips?
I purchased this heater because I thought Rheem to have a solid history and decent support. 100% WRONG. They and their products are both complete garbage. Might as well give a 200 year warranty. Useless.
When you see this color Raheem it’s made in Mexico we dumped Rheem as a heater supplier ,computers are not good on cars what makes you think putting it on your heater was a good idea. Bradford white and never look back.

I love your sense of sarcasm and knowledge. Also, your accent! Thanks for doing this so we know how to do it too!
Nothing worse than funky coconuts. 😂 Thanks for the video. 👍🏼
To me looks like they are headache. People pay for some display lights 😂 love buttons. Simple heater is best

@@Feds-Restoration ok great, thank you
Mine is leaking out of an over flow pipe that comes out the top of the water heater what could be causing that
1) bad valve. shut off heater, run the hot water out then replace the valve
2) gunk in the valve, shut off heater, run hot water out then open and close the releve valve.

If he spilled some water doing the change it will take a few days for it to dry up. Then you should be ok
If he did not change the rod, he may have unhooked the water sensor in spite?
Where were you able to find the the specific parts for this model… bc I am struggling
I ordered them from Rheem
@@Feds-Restoration any chance you have a magic number because I never reach anyone
I used this one 8006215622 but you can order the parts from the website
Man can you find someone to hold the friggin phone for you?
Seems like Rheem has let their quality go.
